Perhaps it was because the matter of the dean's recruitment of disciples was so big that it overshadowed all other matters, so Chen Chao's killing of monks was not as popular as before, but fortunately, the Xie family was still adding fuel to the fire, so many gods The people are still counting the days, thinking that these are the last few days.
Time passed slowly, and that day soon arrived.
After the dispersion of the dynasty, officials from Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment and the Inspectorate stayed.
This is the Three Law Division of the Liang Dynasty.
At the same time, the three foreign monks were also summoned into the palace.
The middle-aged Taoist nun had been waiting for this day for a long time. She felt that all her patience had been exhausted. She just wanted to rush into Dali Temple and cut Chen Chao into pieces. However, although she thought so, she did not do so. Although she had She became a madman, but she knew that in the Liang Dynasty, the gods were not a place for her to run wild.
Today she was walking in the imperial city, looking at the green tiles and red walls, and feeling the runes and formations engraved on them. She felt very uncomfortable in her heart. But now, even if she feels extremely uncomfortable, she still has to learn to tolerate it. Even though she could see those imperial city guards from time to time, they were crude warriors in her eyes, so they could only walk by expressionlessly without doing anything.
Compared with her, Xu Yu and Yu Ke behind her seemed much calmer. Their expressions were calm and no emotions were exposed.
The three of them followed the servants in the palace all the way to the imperial study. The Taoist nun's face was already extremely ugly. Thinking that she was about to see the emperor of the Liang Dynasty, she had to salute him even if she didn't have to kneel down. This made her accustomed to being aloof. It was hard for her to accept it, but the door was not opened. The chamberlain outside the royal study room glanced at the three of them and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty has a decree. The three immortal masters are here. You can leave the palace now."
The middle-aged Taoist nun's expression relaxed and her expression improved. The remaining two people also nodded slightly, turned around and left. Entering the palace was a rule stipulated in the agreement many years ago, but if you really want to see the Emperor of Liang who is known as the Wangyou Warrior, How they deal with it is also a bit troublesome, and it is naturally best to do this now.
Watching the three people leave, the chamberlain turned around and walked in.
The imperial study room is simply decorated. Apart from rows of bookshelves made of the extremely precious huanghuali, there is only an ordinary desk, and His Majesty the Emperor is sitting behind the desk at the moment, flipping through a miscellaneous book.
The chamberlain softly reported what was going on outside and asked at the same time: "Your Majesty, do you want the officials of the Third Law Department to come in?"
"I heard that the dean has accepted the last disciple, a girl. It's really strange. The seventy-one disciples before the dean were all men, but in the end there was such a single disciple."
Emperor Liang's voice sounded without much authority, perhaps because His Majesty the Emperor was in a good mood when talking about the dean.
The chamberlain who has been working in the palace for more than twenty years replied softly: "The dean has always been free and easy, and he has his own rules for doing things."
"The rules? What rules does the old man have? He just has a bad temper and big fists, but I like it."
All scholars in the world need to respect him. The dean of the academy on the bank of Nanhu, who is looked up to by countless people from both the court and the public in Daliang, is already just an old man when it comes to His Majesty the Emperor. However, as the actual ruler of a dynasty, Daliang If the emperor said this, no one would dare to refute him.
Of course, if the dean were here, he would definitely refute it.
After chatting for a while, Emperor Daliang finally remembered the business and said calmly: "Tell the people in the Sanfa Division that everything will be handled impartially and that Han Pu, the minister of Dali Temple, will preside over the matter."
The inner waiter responded and was also very confused. Nowadays, there are very fierce rumors in the gods. It is said that the reason why the young man was able to cause trouble in the gods was because the Liang Dynasty also wanted to change the attitude of the other monks, and this The source of the idea is naturally His Majesty the Emperor. Since His Majesty the Emperor has this thought, then when the Three Law Divisions will interrogate the guardian envoy today, I think His Majesty should be partial to it, but why is there only such a light word?
It is said that God's heart is unpredictable, but as chamberlains, aren't they just guessing His Majesty's thoughts all day long?
He exited the imperial study and conveyed His Majesty's decree to the waiting officials of the Sanfa Department. On the way back to the imperial study, the chamberlain also kept thinking about Emperor Liang's thoughts.
The officials of the Sanfa Division who came out of the palace with the decree were also thinking about it.
The Minister of Punishment thought for a while, glanced at Han Pu, who was wearing a red official robe, walked up to him, and asked in a low voice: "Master Han, doesn't His Majesty's decree have any profound meaning?"
As early as the moment the young man entered the divine capital, they had been thinking about His Majesty the Emperor. Like countless people, they also wanted to know whether the current situation formed naturally, or whether His Majesty the Emperor was also adding fuel to the fire. If so, Your Majesty has an idea, so what can ministers like them do? But today, when the case is already being heard, why did the final result only come from His Majesty the Emperor's imperial edict without any favoritism?
When Han Pu heard this, he felt that the Minister of Justice in front of him was such an idiot, and almost laughed out loud. However, he quickly calmed down his emotions and said calmly: "Your Majesty is the Holy Lord, how can you show favoritism? I'll wait." A fair trial is just that, and finding out the truth is living up to His Majesty's trust."
Having said that, Han Pu couldn't help but think of that interesting young man on his way out of the palace. The evidence of the murder was conclusive, but he couldn't produce any other evidence. In this three-law trial, even if he could prove the facts The truth is revealed, so what?
…
…
According to the decree of Emperor Daliang, this time the joint trial of the Three Law Divisions will be presided over by the Minister of Dali Temple. Therefore, the trial cannot be held in Dali Temple, but in the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. Therefore, he left the palace in Hanpu and returned to Dali Temple. Finally, Chen Chao finally left the Dali Temple Prison where he had lived for more than half a month.
After putting on the heavy shackles again, Chen Chao glanced at his arms and thought that these days in the dark prison were not all without benefits. Now at least his skin has become fairer.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.
A faint voice sounded, with a hint of regret, "You are going to die, how can you still laugh?"
When Chen Chao came back to his senses, he found that he had left the Yamen of Dali Temple and now came to the door. In front of him was the familiar prison car and the familiar Weng Quan.
"why is it you again?!"
Chen Chao widened his eyes and was very puzzled by this.
Weng Quan grinned and said: "You are a repeat offender now. What should you do if something happens during the transfer? Zuowei is responsible for the safety of the divine capital, so it is reasonable for him to help Dali Temple as a favor."
"That's fine if it's you, but now we're in the capital of the gods, can't we find a new prison car?"
Weng Quan nodded and said: "Of course, but I thought you might have some feelings after sitting on this."
Chen Chao had no expression on his face and then silently greeted this guy.
After a moment, Chen Chao seemed to have thought of something, and then lowered his voice and said, "Is it possible that Commander Song has discovered his conscience and asked you to rescue me and leave?"
Weng Quan was startled, then looked at Chen Chao as if he were an idiot, "Boy, this is the capital of the gods!"
Of course Chen Chao also knew, thoughtfully.
It was just a harmless joke.
Calmly walking into the prison car again, Chen Chao looked at the good weather today and thought it was a good sign.
The team slowly left the long street, and soon attracted a crowd of people to watch. Today's meeting of the Three Law Departments to interrogate Chen Chao was already known to everyone in the world. It was natural for these people to appear here. However, this matter was later heard by the Ministry of Punishments. During the case, only a small number of people were able to go to the hospital to observe the case.
This time, Chen Chao did not lower his head, but instead looked around, as if he already knew that today was the last day of his life, so he wanted to see the world again.
"I heard that he was good at killing monks outside the country, but he is still a young man. Is he going to die at such a young age?"
"Yes, I also heard that he served as a guardian for several years. During his tenure, he also protected the people from being intruded by monsters."
"There must be some hidden secret here. I just don't know if those officials can give him justice."
"Others are fine, but now it involves those foreign monks. How can it be so easy?"
"Those monks never treat us as human beings. In fact, they just kill us. But the matter has become serious, and now the court has nothing to do."
"How dare you say this and risk your life?!"
Noisy voices on the long street kept ringing. Many people already knew the identity of Chen Chao. With Xie's help, they even knew what achievements Chen Chao had made when he was the guardian envoy in the past few years. Therefore, although he was still Without knowing the truth of the matter, sympathy already arose.
As ordinary people, they don't want much. It's great to live and work in peace and contentment. Naturally, they won't worry about monsters eating people in the capital of the gods. But elsewhere, having a good guardian envoy is crucial.
…
…
Following Chen Chao's prison carriage to the Ministry of Punishment, there were several carriages. The three Qi Masters who had just entered the palace and now left the palace met the team at Dali Temple on the long street. While they were stopping, they naturally heard The middle-aged Taoist nun was filled with anger after hearing those comments on the street. If she hadn't been in the capital of the gods at this moment, she would have gone on a killing spree.
Especially after hearing the words "Kill him if you should kill him," the Taoist nun felt a surge of rage in his heart. At this moment, he didn't care whether he was in the capital or not, so she wanted to kill that person.
But before she could take action, ripples appeared in her heart. It was Xu Yu's voice, "Fellow Daoist Wang must be patient. If we act rashly in this situation, I'm afraid not only the thief will die, but you and I will not be able to get out of it." City of Gods.”
Although he had never dealt with this middle-aged Taoist nun, Xu Yu had to say something at this moment. He was really afraid that this crazy woman would ignore her in anger. It would be okay to kill people elsewhere, but this was in the capital of the gods. If Emperor Liang really wanted to kill people right under his nose, no matter how powerful the sect behind them was, it would be difficult to protect them.
The middle-aged Taoist nun exhaled a breath and tried her best to calm down. She was indeed a crazy woman, but at this moment, she still had a trace of reason.
But even so, she cursed viciously: "Untouchables, they are all damn untouchables!"
